'œAn up-to-date account of how the Japanese economy works, and of how structural transformations there will have an impact on Japan's trading partners. The interesting feature of this particular work is its persuasive use of examples to support the authors' various hypotheses. In this way readers can judge for themselves the validity of the hypotheses, something that is not usually possible in other works on Japan which tend to rely on unsubstantialized generalizations.... This book is a well-researched thought-provoking look at Japan, one that will be especially useful for political scientists and strategic analysts wishing to learn more about the business and economic systems of the major U.S. ally in the Pacific region.'' OrbisMerit W. Janow is the author of 'The Competition: Dealing with Japan', published 1985 under ISBN 9780275917548 and ISBN 0275917541.
